Hobb's Toolbox

If you like handling the paste-boards;
There's a great new resource being published by Stephen Hobbs (whose name you may have seen here, there & maybe everywhere...)

www.StephenHobbsTechnicalToolbox.com 

This is not really a beginner site and it's really recommended for the card enthusiast(and is password protected to keep the laity at bay)

I found it fun, enlightening and useful 
and if Hobbs can keep it up, it's destined for a year long run (something new every Fri.)

I've already found a couple things that made me think... and I'm looking forward to more
I hope you find the same

NEW!

My "New" years things I'd like to accomplish (because I can't 'resolve' to do anything)

#1 quit doing the same old tricks: break the mold and shake things up a bit
#2 put some of this (and some of that) into a one man show: at least 50 minutes
#3 NEW shopping cart
#4 NEW products
#5 NEW (and LOTS more) online videos
#6 NEW Tricks (time to release the inner beast and be an artist again: lets get creative)
#7 NEW outlook: Eliminate the negative!

On that note...

Murphy's Magic

Murphy's has been busy

I was introduced to their new review show over the holidays
"Unwrapped" featuring Kyle Marlett

It looks good, though initial viewings have been a bit 'happy'
no real negatives yet... so, it remains to be seen if this is a Murphy's commercial or really a review show

Each review show covers two items... here's the most recent (#10)

I highly suggest going through the archives.

Seems they also have something called free trick friday in which a feature magi brings you a freebie effect.
all in all, I'd say their youtube channel is worth looking at. Check it out:

Nice to see a company growing and keeping up with the times.

DougConn.com is Back!

It's been awhile (and I thought this day might never come, but it has!)

I've got  the standard promo-crap up there as well as some fun magi-bonuses those familiar with the arcane arts might find interesting (and I'm just warming up: look for these areas to get bigger & better)
I'm still learning to work the wordpress platform, so bare with me while I adjust any kinks.

If you could please take a sec & beta test: http://www.dougconn.com
& if you have any comments, criticism, etc: please email me! 
Thanks & I hope you find something of use!
